Issei tapped his finger on the throne while observing the Divine Phoenix Empire group.

The Divine Phoenix Empire felt their heart thumped loudly in rhyme with his tapping...

Feng Xue'er was about to say something but she finally erases the thought... She can't keep asking for leniency at her Grandmaster.

"...To be honest, I didn't really need to do anything if I wanted for your clan destruction... And even if your clan vanished, there's still a second Phoenix clan ready to replace you." Issei said after waiting for a while.

Feng Hengkong raised his head feeling dumbstruck, he unconsciously let out a confused voice when he heard Issei's words: "Eh? What do you mean, your lordship?" Only after he let out his voice that he remembered how impolite he was: "Th-This subject apologize for his rudeness!"

He hastily apologized on the spot but Issei pays no heed to his outburst and calmly continued speaking: "What do I mean? Do you know what I discovered when I searched Ye Xinghan's memories before?"

Among them, there's someone who shuddered fiercely hearing Ye Xinghan's name being mentioned... He started sweating profusely and couldn't stop his body from trembling.

"You should know what I'm talking about right... Feng Feiyan, was it?" Issei's eyes homing in on one specific individual.

Feng Hengkong and the others also had their gaze locked onto him.

"What did his lordship mean by that... brother?" Feng Hengkong asked the trembling Feng Feiyan while restlessness started to creeping on him... Can it be...

Although Feng Feiyan was only seven years older than Feng Hengkong, he looked twenty or thirty years older.

"I-I-I..." Feng Feiyan repeatedly stuttered when he heard Feng Henkong's question.

"No need to fabricate lies in front of me... Unless you wanted to suffer the same fate as them." When Issei finishes saying that, they heard two shrieks coming from nearby Issei's location.

"AAAHHHHHH!!! IT HURTSSSS!!!" Both of them screamed in horror.

The onlookers' faces went deadly pale when they saw these two individuals. Aren't they Xuanyuan Wentian and Huangji Wuyu who just died? How come both of them are 'alive'? Wait... That's not... That's not their physical bodies but rather their spiritual body?! But there's something different about their spiritual body... they can't tell just what it is but there's something sinister about it.

Both of them are currently being shredded to pieces by the very same hand that was encircling Zi Ji not long ago.

Xuanyuan Wentian and Huangji Wuyu soul are shredded into pieces right before their eyes... Starting from their legs, stomach, chest, arms, and finally their heads...

If it wasn't their spiritual body, then perhaps there will be a large pool of blood in their previous place... The onlookers' had their whole body went cold when they saw the two poor bastard fate...

"So... Should I tell them myself or would you rather tell them yourself?" Issei set his gaze back on Feng Feiyan.

"I-I-I confess!!!" Feng Feiyan practically screamed in terror. He rather be killed by Feng Hengkong rather than having this Devil taking his life!

Then he confessed his little plan... He is the one who leaked out rumors that the Divine Phoenix God had died and transferred his legacy to Feng Xue'er. He sold out information about Xue'er's divine body to Ye Xinghan with the intention to curry favor with the future leader of Sun Moon Divine Hall.

He was going to assist Ye Xinghan in capturing Feng Xue'er within the Primordial Profound Ark. He wanted to take advantage of Feng Xue'er's trust in him as Great Elder of her sect then proceeded to land a sneak attack to seal her profound strength using the Phoenix Sealing Imprisonment Formation...

That way Feng Xue'er won't be able to put any resistance at all while Ye Xinghan will have his way with her...

Feng Xue'er who heard this news had her eyes widen in shock... She can't believe that her own family member she was trying to protect was going to harm her all along...

If it wasn't for her Grandmaster's prevention then her fate would've been...

"BASTARD! ANIMAL!" Both Feng Hengkong and Feng Ximing shouted in fury when they heard his confession.

Feng Hengkong becomes so enraged that he practically sprinted towards Feng Feiyan's location disregarding everything just to end this animal's life.

He wastes no moment and instantly lands a killing blow that blasted Feng Feiyan's head open just like a watermelon.

Feng Feiyan himself doesn't offer any kind of resistance since he believes that dying by Feng Hengkong's hand is a hundred times better compared to dying in Issei's hand... Which is true and might be the best decision he will make in the last moment of his life...

Issei then decided to just put a curse on the Divine Phoenix Empire. It's the same curse as the Phoenix clan he met before meaning that this curse will affect them the moment they do evil deeds.

Feng Ximing face become like a dying ember knowing that they've been cursed... That means that he can't have any more indecent thoughts towards Feng Xue'er...

Feng Hengkong and the other clan members, on the other hand, felt relieved... They basically got off easy if their punishment is just to this extent...

Feng Xue'er also felt relieved and she becomes very grateful for her Grandmaster benevolence... She wanted to hug her Grandmaster so badly for some reason but she manages to hold it in at the last second...

This is the first time she wanted to hug someone out of her own volition like this... Xiaotao who saw this act of Feng Xue'er smiled thinly...

It seems that her disciple is still too inexperienced... well, it doesn't matter. She's still young so she has a lot of time to grow.

He also told them to find the Phoenix clan and take them into their Empire.

The Little Demon Empress goes back to their for now while Issei told Xiaotao to take care of the rest while he headed towards a certain location. The location that he obtained from Xuanyuan Wentian and the others...

"...We have finally fulfilled our Frozen Cloud Ancestor's wish..." Feng Qianhui said softly.

Gong Yuxian who's beside her also nodded at her statement: "And it's all thanks to him yet again..."

"Indeed... The debt we owe him is too many to count... Aiii... I can only hope that we will be able to repay him in the future..." Feng Qianhui said with a sigh.

"Don't worry Grand Mistress... We can surely repay him and if not we can just follow him forever." Gong Yuxian said with a tinge of blush adorning her face.

"Oh? That's true... Heheheh..." Feng Qianhui giggled softly.

While Chu Yuechan's group also blushed at the thought. The other sect members such as Xia Qingyue, Cang Yue, and the others are kind of clueless about their whole conversation.

They only joined the palace recently after all so it's understandable that they don't know about this topic.
